This place does classic diner food and they do it pretty well. The pancakes might be my favorite thing but the Java is the best bang for your buck. I have tried several other dishes and none have let me down so feel free to explore the menu. The wait staff is extremely friendly and when you get coffee you're never able to finish the cup because someone is constantly topping it off. Don't worry about the longer wait times, just get yourself a cup of coffee (you might have to work through a small crowd to get there) and be patient. Don't skip the cinnamon rolls! read more

Great food and nice people! Youll find good prices for great foods. I had java nachos and ultimate migas. Both were delicious!

This cafe is very cute and the costumer service was great, But found a couple of hairs in my food

Great place for breakfast / brunch / lunch. We took our international guests there and were never disappointed. Arrive early on Sunday to avoid a long wait read more

One of the best cafe in Austin. Breakfast is really good. Service is really good as well. One downside - it's always busy.

One of our favorite, local restaurants! Service and food are always amazing. On weekends there is an expected wait time so get there early. Reasonably priced food on a cool environment read more

Cute little place that can get crowded esp during brunch/lunch rushes but popular place to hit for some good breakfast food and sandwiches! When its not that crowded, its a nice little coffee shop kind of place. Knocking off a star just because although as kind as they can be, waitstaff gets impatient here. I know it's busy but if paying customers wanna talk, then it would be nice to not stop by the table every few seconds to refill water, ask if we need anything else, take away plates etc Its a bit obvious that they want us out. We were almost done anyways but in deep convo so needed a sec more . But hash browns are crispy and omelette light but not wow wow but a solid good. Popular place and nearby so most likely will cone back just expect crowds n wait in this small place and busy waitresses. Oh btw yes my friend said her coffee was delicious and price is fair. read more

Great coffee and breakfast. This is a hidden gem near the domain, well-known in the neighborhood. My husband and I love their fancier coffee drinks. The bacon is thick cut and delicious and the toast and hash browns are to die for! My husband loves their French toast too. read more

Everything I've tried is very good. Pretty busy place. Service is quick. Would definitely revisit this place.

Love this mom and pop cafe! Have been coming here with the fam since I was in grade school and now I come with my husband! Friendly staff and great service! read more

This place is a hidden treasure. It is my all time favorite diner - ever. Food comes out fast and is consistently made to your specific order. I'm a crispy hash and hash browns kind of girl and they always come out perfectly! Also I don't know if you are aware, but many diners really struggle with eggs "over medium". Cafe java has perfected it to a T! High quality breakfast food with quick service- what more could you ask for? read more

Cafe Java - Austin - Small Hazelnut latte with and extra shot - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day and I'm very glad I got to try this cute spot. Their food/coffee were so yummy and the service was amazing! Their menu had food for everyone (tacos, migas, pancakes, muffins, and sandwiches to name a few)!! I got the huevos rancheros with eggs sunny side up and it did not disappoint. The eggs were perfectly cooked, the salsa gave it a nice taste, and the bacon had the perfect crisp. We went around 10:00/10:30 on a Tuesday and there were still a lot of people, this has to mean their food is good right? Definitely recommend! read more

We were visiting Austin and went there for brunch. The staffs were amazingly helpful and friendly. We ordered Ultimate Migos and ironman omelet. Both were delicious, if you want it, they can make your food vegetarian! When we were at the cashier we saw the most fun sticker ever, when the cashier saw how much we liked it, she gave it to us for free, although we insisted a lot to pay for it! #Keep_Austin_Wired read more

Pretty cool breakfast spot. Love the vibe here and the food is good. It's really chill and not too much and the coffee is great. I was curious how it would taste out of this red cafeteria cup but ya know never judge a drink by it's cup lol. The BLT is my go to. Hash browns are good. Bacon crispy. Staff was very sweet. read more

Came here once last year for breakfast and the food was great! I got the sausage platter that came with with 2 eggs and hashbrowns with a side of toast. I was just expecting normal breakfast food, but this is AMAZING. The sausage didn't taste like frozen sausage patties like most restaurants do, it was perfect! The eggs (I got them sunnysideup) were cooked perfectly with the right amount of runny yolk and the hashbrowns were delicious. My boyfriend got the ultimate migas and really liked it. Reasonably priced as well! I would come here more often if I lived in Austin! read more

Cafe Java - Austin - Top: Ultimate Migas Bottom: Sausage Platter with hashbrowns, sunny side up eggs, toast. Delicious! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

The food is decent and the coffee is "ok", BUT Cafe Java is such an Austin staple and even a reminder of how Austin used to be, that it will always be on our list of go-to spots. It's eccentric, yet quaint. I have so many fond memories of stopping by Austin Java every Sunday after church and sharing a plate of migas. read more

The food is delicious diner fare. The hash browns were golden and crispy. The coffee and tea drinks are wonderful. The best part of this place is the people. Everyone was so welcoming and genuinely nice. The setting is quaint and warm. read more

Excellent food with a large number of keto options. Come early... The lines can be long on the weekends especially

Best brunch/lunch place in Austin. You can feel the warmth from the moment you enter. There may be a wait depending on when you go. We got the Java combo and an omlette. Both were very good. The bottomless coffee was on point - basic diner fare. Eggs and bacon cooked perfectly. The veggies and fruits were fresh as well. Hash browns are to die for. 4.5 stars are totally worth it. They get 5 from me for being local and family owned. read more

Great breakfast spot. Epic, actually. Steak & eggs are always superb. If out of town guests show up, a trip to cafe Java is always my first suggestion. read more

Food is amazing. Servers are very friendly. Would recommend. I come in every morning and it never gets old.

I've been here multiple times , I love how the energy is always up and running . You walk in and it's crazy busy but guess what your food will be out faster then , McDonalds lunch line at the drive thru. I recommend dinning in , taking out ! If you new in Austin this a must breakfast place you have to go to! This place isn't name brand popular but the Price , the food, and the service is better then a lot of fancy expensive places! I recommend you guys check it out!! read more

This is the embodiment of hospitality! The smell of java and diverse cuisine floods your senses and immediately made me question if I was back at home or was this a dystopia of comfort. I ordered the Migas here and they were amazing. I'm very skeptical of ordering any breakfast items, because of the number of onions they will add to eggs, but this was different. I thoroughly enjoyed my nice little meal. I definitely have told a lot of people about my visit here, I can't wait to come back! read more

3 star for food (not AMAZING, but not bad, a-OK) 4 star for service It has a very homey, local feel to it. Cheesy decor, not trendy clean designs you see everywhere, but its part of the appeal. Its the type of place you can expect them to know your name after showing up a few times. You can tell all the people who come here are locals and have been eating here forever. The food is your basic, run-of-the mill diner food. It was fresh, fast, and not greasy . I wasn't WOW'd by it, but I'm not normally wow'd by diner food? Its just a quick and hearty breakfast without being too fussy. It should be exactly what you expect when it comes to an all American breakfast place. When we went, there was a short line, but we went in rather quickly. The place was packed though! But people come in, eat, and leave, so tables clear up pretty quickly. The staff is friendly and fast. I rounded it up to 4 stars since I would probably come back in a pinch, but not my top choice either! But I wouldn't hate if we came back. read more

Have been here twice and both times it was great. Good food and friendly, fast service.

First time coming in from visiting out of town. Every employee was friendly and attentive. Amazing service and the food was good! The vibe was very welcoming and warm as well. Will definitely be returning. Definitely earned their stars! read more
